Clute- Just when it seemed the Bucs were finally about to have a chance to win, senior Anthony Dahl took what he wanted and literally stole victory away from the Friendswood Mustangs.

Dahl scored the walkoff run in the bottom of the eighth inning, stealing home to shock the visiting Mustangs, helping the Bucs secure a 1-0 District 24-6A win in front of a rowdy home crowd.

The big win propelled the Bucs to 9-4 on the young season, and 1-1 in district.

Prior to extra innings, the game was an intense nail-biter for most of the time. Both teams became locked into a defensive war of attrition, with neither team wanting to blink until the final inning. Anthony Bell started on he mound for the Bucs and went the distance, picking up the complete game shutout. Bell pitched 8 innings, threw 105 pitches, yielded 7 hits, struck out 5, and walked 3 batters.

Losing pitcher Ryan Shetter pitched the entire game for Friendswood

Due to rain, the Clear Creek game has been rescheduled for 7 pm March 23, 2015 at Clear Creek.
